Disclosed is a human GABAA epsilon subunit receptor and DNA (RNA) encoding such polypeptides (RNA). Also provided is a procedure for producing such polypeptides by recombinant techniques and agonists and antagonists for such polypeptides. Also provided are methods of using the agonists, for example, to treat anxiety, Huntington's Chorea, muscular spasms and rigidity, and sleep and seizure disorders. Antagonists may be used, for example, to diagnose and treat anxiety, Huntington's Chorea, sleep and seizure disorders, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and overdoses with benzodiazepine and for enhancing cognition and reversing sedation after application of general anesthesia during surgery. |
